The world needs more than the ores we mine. We're absolutely committed to the wellbeing of communities and ecosystems in the places where we operate. And we’re restless in driving forward a new age of safe, sustainable, responsible mining.

We have clear principles and values. Our way is to do the right thing, the right way, the first time – and we’re not afraid to make hard choices.

Above all, we’re people who want to make a real difference. People like you?

tHE OPPORTUNITY

We’re one of the biggest and most successful mining groups in the world, with a diverse workforce represented on five continents.

We’ve been building our business (and a worldwide reputation) for more than 90 years. Our task of creating sustainable value goes way beyond mining and extraction, spanning government relations, exploration, processing, smelting, and developing new mining technologies.

We’re proud of our achievements, but in a competitive and demanding industry we’re very much looking ahead, working to be partners in the future with all of our core constituents, from communities and governments to customers and shareholders.

How will we get there? By investing in assets that give people the commodities they want. By becoming ever more efficient. And by continuing to work safely, sustainably and responsibly. Above all we depend on our people. It’s people that make our business.

OUR PEOPLE

Our people are the proof that Anglo American is a truly global business: diverse and international.

Our approach to recruitment is simple: we choose the best person for the job, aim for a balanced workforce, and encourage those who live in the places where we operate to join us.

Real Careers

Our global reach and reputation mean the career opportunities with us are incredible. Here are some of the places Anglo American could take you…

WOMEN IN MINING

We’re serious about ending male dominance in the mining industry. One by one, we’re removing the obstacles.

And we’re seeing the difference, with the proportion of women in our management roles now more than 20%. But we can still go further. From boardroom to rock face, we want women at Anglo American to be not just equal, but have the chance to be exceptional.

You’ll need to be someone who can bring our values and principles to life. You’ll be able to look beyond processes to the lives we touch. And you’ll be a team player, ready to share ideas, collaborate, challenge and support those around you, creating positive and long-term change.

OUR VALUES

It’s easy to talk about values. It take s real people to bring them to life. People like you?

What does it mean to live our values? Find out from Stimer...

“If it can’t be done safely we don’t do it.”

Stimer has real responsibility for peoples’ lives. So he leads by example, shares ideas and encourages collaboration. Stimer is clear that empowering people makes a real difference to understanding risks and hazards. Safety must come first.

REAL VALUES

Everything we do is fuelled by our values. We put safety first in everything we do. We show care and respect, demonstrate integrity and have clear accountability. We need collaboration to succeed, and to keep succeeding we know that we have to continue to innovate.

YOUR SAFETY AND WELLBEING

Putting people first in mining means an absolute commitment to safety.

In a potentially hazardous business we have a universal priority: all our people should go home safely at the end of each day. With our approach we’re pushing towards the ideal of zero harm.

Being safe starts with wellbeing – which means different things across the diverse communities we serve. We work to tackle each threat to wellbeing wherever we find it.

YOUR COMMUNITY

By joining our business, you’ll become part of the community where you work.

If people are our business, then our heart lies in the communities that enable us to function. We need them, and with your help we can give back as generously as they give to us.

The role you play could be face-to-face and hands-on: meeting, talking, teaching and learning. It may be less direct but no less important, for example, developing plans and programmes to make local lives better. Here’s Tatiane and Liomar’s story…

“We’re enabling people to create local income and have a good quality of life, without having to move out to the city.”
